Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Manufacturer Equivalent: The 5536627-1 from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors is the direct equivalent to the obsolete 536627-1. Both parts share identical connector style (Futurebus), termination method (solder), and all electrical specifications. The 5536627-1 carries active product status and RoHS compliance, making it the preferred choice for new designs and ongoing production requiring direct form-fit-function replacement.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives: The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series parts (70236-101LF, 70236-102LF, 70236-103LF, 70236-105LF, 70236-107LF, 70236-108LF) provide functional equivalence through matching electrical and mechanical parameters. These parts employ press-fit termination rather than solder termination and utilize Blade Power connector style rather than Futurebus style. All listed Metral® parts maintain the required 8-position, 0.236" pitch, 4-row configuration with gold contact finish and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The RoHS-compliant variants (70236-101LF, 70236-102LF, 70236-103LF, 70236-105LF, 70236-107LF, 70236-108LF) are suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance.

Non-Compliant Alternatives: Parts 70236-106, 70236-113, and 70236-133 are RoHS non-compliant and are functionally equivalent to the original 536627-1 in terms of electrical and mechanical specifications. These parts are applicable only to legacy systems or applications where RoHS compliance is not required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5536627-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 536627-1?

A: Yes. The 5536627-1 is the direct manufacturer equivalent with identical connector style, pitch, position count, row configuration, and termination method. The primary difference is active product status and RoHS compliance of the 5536627-1 versus the obsolete, non-compliant status of the 536627-1.

Q: What is the difference between solder termination and press-fit termination?

A: The 536627-1 and 5536627-1 use solder termination, requiring thermal attachment to PCB pads. The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series uses press-fit termination, where contacts are mechanically inserted into plated through-holes. Both termination methods are compatible with through-hole PCB mounting and maintain electrical continuity.

Q: Are Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® parts compatible with designs using the TE Connectivity 536627-1?

A: Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® parts maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility through identical pitch (0.236"), position count (8), row configuration (4), contact layout (8 Power), contact finish (gold), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The connector style differs (Blade Power versus Futurebus), and termination method differs (press-fit versus solder). PCB layout and mating connector compatibility must be verified for specific applications.

Q: Which substitute parts are RoHS compliant?

A: The 5536627-1 and the following Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® parts are RoHS compliant: 70236-101LF, 70236-102LF, 70236-103LF, 70236-105LF, 70236-107LF, and 70236-108LF. Parts 70236-106, 70236-113, and 70236-133 are RoHS non-compliant.

Q: What is the current rating for the substitute parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series parts (70236-101LF, 70236-102LF, 70236-103LF, 70236-105LF, 70236-106, 70236-107LF, 70236-108LF, 70236-113, 70236-133) are rated for 3A per contact. The original 536627-1 and 5536627-1 do not specify a current rating in the provided data.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: The 536627-1 packaging is not specified. The 5536627-1 is supplied in tube packaging. All Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series parts are supplied in tube packaging except 70236-106, which does not specify packaging format.

Q: What is the voltage rating for the Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® parts?

A: The voltage rating is not specified for the Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series parts in the provided data. The original 536627-1 and 5536627-1 are rated for 30V.
